DESCRIPTION
The 35-72 is a 120 VAC direct spark ignition control for controlling a gas valve and igniting LP or natural gas on heating equipment that provides a 120 VAC operating voltage. The microprocessor circuit design provides precise, repeatable timing sequences for ignition times, purge times (pre- and inter-) along with multiple tries for ignition and flame sensing during pre-purge. Agency Certifications
Design certified by CSA International to CAN C22.2 #199-M89 and ANSI Z21.20 for Automatic Ignition Systems

Designed, developed and manufactured by Fenwal, these components integrate seamlessly providing maximum system performance.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION / FLAME RECOVERY/ SAFETY LOCKOUT

Start up - Heat Mode
When the thermostat is set above the ambient temperature, 120 VAC are supplied to the L1 terminal. When this occurs the control will power up and perform a self-check routine and begin a pre-purge*, if selected. Following the pre-purge, the gas valve is energized and sparks commence until flame is detected or the Trial For Ignition (TFI) period expires. When flame is detected, the spark is shut off and the gas valve remains energized. The thermostat and burner flame are constantly monitored to ensure that the system is functioning properly. When the thermostat is satisfied and the demand for heat ends, the gas valve is de-energized immediately and the flame is extinguished.

Flame Failure of Established Flame RE-IGNITION

If the established flame signal is lost while the burner is operating, the control responds and begins sparking within 0.8 seconds. The spark will be energized for the duration of the trial-for-ignition period in an attempt to re-light the burner. If flame is re-established, normal operation resumes. SINGLE TRIAL MODEL If the burner does not light after the first attempt, the control will de-energize the gas valve and go into lockout mode. See Lockout Recovery MULTI TRIAL MODEL If the burner does not light after the first attempt, the inter-purge sequence is completed between attempts to re-light the burner. If the burner fails to light after the third try, the control will de-energize the gas valve and go into lockout mode. See Lockout Recovery

System Response to Flame Failures

The robust design of our gas ignition controls is demonstrated by their ability to respond to flame failures in a safe manner and provide re-ignition options for the equipment designer.

Flame Failure During Trial-for-Ignition Period

SINGLE TRIAL MODEL Should the burner fail to light or flame is not detected at the end of the trial-for-ignition period, the gas valve is de-energized immediately and the control will go into lockout mode. MULTI TRIAL MODEL Should the burner fail to light or flame is not detected during the first trial for ignition period, the gas valve is de-energized and the control starts the inter-purge sequence before another ignition attempt. After inter-purge, the control will attempt two additional ignition trials. If these attempts are unsuccessful the control will go into lockout mode.

Lockout Mode (On-Board Safety System)

After single or multiple attempts to light the burner have failed or flame is not established, the control automatically enters lockout mode. The control will not open the gas valve unless there is intervention by the user. See Lockout Recovery.

Lockout Recovery
For lockout recovery, reset the thermostat below ambient temperature or remove the 120 VAC power supply for 5 seconds.

* The pre-purge is simply a delay to allow gas to dissipate from the combustion chamber. This control is not equipped with a combustion blower relay and therefore does not initiate a fan powered pre-purge.

MOUNTING AND WIRING

The 35-72 is not position sensitive and can be mounted vertically or horizontally. The control may be mounted on any surface and fastened with #6 sheet metal screws. Secure the control in an area that will experience a minimum of vibration and remain below the maximum ambient temperature of 80C (175F). All connections should be made with UL approved, 105C rated, 18 gauge, stranded, .054 thick insulated wire. Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram when connecting the 35-72 to other components in the system. High voltage spark cables and control wiring harnesses are detailed on Pages 5 and 6.

ACCESSORIES
Proper Electrode Location
Proper location of the electrode assembly is important for optimum system performance. It is recommended that the electrode assembly be mounted temporarily using clamps or other suitable means to check the system before permanently mounting the assembly. The electrode assembly should be located so that the tips are inside the flame envelope and about 1/2 inch (10 mm) above the base of the flame. See Figures 3a and 3b.

Figure 4a

#
!

CAUTIONS:
Ceramic insulators should not be in or close to the flame. Electrodes should have a gap spacing of 0.125 0.031 inch (3.12 0.81 mm). If this spacing is not correct, the assembly must be replaced. Exceeding the temperature limits can cause nuisance lockouts and premature electrode failure. Electrodes must be placed where they are not exposed to the appliance user in normal operation.

FLAME CURRENT CHECK: REMOTE SENSE To measure flame current, disconnect input voltage, then insert a 0-50 Micro Ampheres DC meter inline with flame sense wire per Figure 4b. Reconnect input voltage and initiate call for heat. After sparking is complete and flame is established meter should read 1.0 Micro Ampheres or higher while flame is established. If meter reads below "0" on the scale, meter leads are reversed. Disconnect power and reconnect meter leads for proper polarity. Figure 4b

3. 4.

Flame Sensing
Flame sensing is achieved using the principal of flame rectification. Flame rectification relies on current passing from ground through the flame to the sense rod. The minimum flame current necessary to keep the system from lockout is 1.0 Micro Ampheres DC. SINGLE SPARK AND SENSE Figure 3a

High Voltage Ignition Wire - 3 Types

Delivering the 15K to 25K volts of spark energy from the ignition control to the electrode is a vital element of an ignition system. There are 3 material options and multiple terminal configurations available. Shown are the most popular versions offered by Fenwal. To ensure maximum spark energy, it is recommended that the ignition wires not be longer than 36. Longer lengths are available and should be evaluated on the appliance to determine if there is sufficient spark energy to consistently light the burner under all conditions. Once the wire type and terminal configurations are determined, complete the part number by replacing the last two digits (XX) with the length in inches (L dimension). Standard wire lengths are 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 48, and 60 inches. For other lengths, please contact Fenwal.

1. SILICONE RUBBER SUPRESSION TYPE: Resistive carbon coated fiberglass core prevents spark energy radiation from interfering with
other electronic systems. Select this wire type for applications where wire lengths are less than 36 and noise is a major concern.
